Far worse? Better stay out of bars, then.

Why did I just bother to read the comments of the first few posters?

I was under the impression today’s strjp (from 2011) was the story arc of Ray’s struggle to adapt back to civilain life and BD helping him find the help he needs. (and by helping Ray, helps himself). A story arc I enjoyed. Like BD. Ray.

.I will just enjoy this old repeat and ignore the comments.

eh ?!?

Guys IGNORE the troll, he’s not interested in engaging in discussion.

You might do better if you posted something totally original and interesting, like about how you are the first poster.

As an Independent you all make me want nothing more than too write in “NONE OF THE ABOVE!”

I have a tee-shirt that has :Annoy a Liberal – use facts and logic

You keep thinking you have to insist others acknowledge your other-color-sky as being reality. The cumulative effect gets you the responses you cumulatively deserve..I used to put up with little nuisances back in school until the cumulative irritation led me to strike the next tormentor, usually not the worst. .When I realized the basic unfairness, I went after the more deserving..You are deserving of their rudeness even if I continue to try to treat you well.

Take it in context, dear Susan. .He believes himself mistreated and does NOT consider himself a liberal, therefore the meaning is clear. He thinks they hate liberally, not holding back.

My favorite t-shirt is the one which says:YOU’RE JUST JEALOUS BECAUSE THE VOICES TALK TO ME

@ Tea Party from what I read you are just as bad. You make provocative statements and then act like an innocent victim at the response. You remind me of the papparazzi who calls out ‘Hey who’s the fat chick you’re with’ and then only publishes the response from the comment – they are hoping for as big response as possible.

@most of the rest of you. Just because someone is being provocative doesn’t mean it’s OK to be insulting and demeaning. While Teaparty is doing the cherry picking half truth thing (imo), the half truth part is that you guys are being insulting and demeaning.

Best thing to do is ignore them – I don’t even read a word when I see the name. Now I have a new one that will be ignored, as well.

lol! I love the ‘retro’ Cold War rhetoric . . . “Soviet apparatchik” . . . “Marxist ideology” . . . How about “God-less Communism” . . . the “threat to freedom-loving peoples”?Too bad the Cold War ended 25 years ago. Those were good times.

Somebody called us Commies? How last century. Don’t they know the new wingnut epithet for us is “Terrorists”?

“When I worked on a tourist railroad, " So I see how far your education went, your bright ideas and I will bet that you are a “Rush Limbaugh” desciple. Also you never, ever traveled outside this country, except to Canada maybe. And you look at 1 or 2 ‘right wing’ tea party accepted Web sits. Am I close??

Gads! What’s going on? People railing at people who haven’t commented in months?

Please don’t feed the troll.

Just curious…But did Mikes daughter have the babies yet or is she still in the Delivery room at “Limbo General Hospital”?

All of this divisiveness is exactly why this country is going down in flames…

Good one! I like how day care centers were a communist plot to convert women from obedient homemakers into anticapitalist proletarian agitators . . .

Then with all that you have, why are you so angry, why are you screaming at people, why can you not give a reasonable debate without using overheated words and name calling. The most respected person I have met was a manger of an electronics manufacturer, that ran a 365/7/24 operation for the GM, that had UAW union. They would threaten him with all sorts of things, and besides that, there was a shortage of parts and besides that, some of machines being used always down and being repaired. I would have given up or start screaming or worst. He was calm, cool and quiet, handled everything well. That should be your target

@richardwebster: what TeaParty actually meant was hater liberals, not liberal haters. Go easy on him—he’s got a couple of screws loose.

WOW ! Sounds like one of the “Banned” has a new account and “ID”…By their fruits shall you know them !"

I hate reruns. . . that applies to the strip and to all the lame comments.
